I know it's been said before, but Charlie is on a different wavelength. It's crazy to see him transition so well to 26"

 

Pretty sure he did section 3 with no or almost no balance hops. Just looked like he was having a light stroll. Unreal

I know I'm asking for trouble as an American debating this on a UK forum but I disagree. He is a ton of fun to watch and has the ability to seemingly do anything, but it just doesn't seem to come together when it really really counts. Much like Montalvo, so much fun to watch, always so dynamic and crazy front stuff, but took years to pull off the rainbow jersey, I feel it will be the same with Rolls.

Will be interesting to see him on the 26" up against Jack, both move fast but I feel Carthy is way more robotic and gets the job done just perfect.

Charlie had no pressure on this competition, and that's probably why he did so well there.

I guess it will be different on world cups and such. It's what happened the past years too...

I definitely agree with all three of you guys. It seems like as long as he's able to stay in his warp speed flow state he's magic, but in the big comps when something interrupts that flow, things fall short. Missed flags and the lot.

 

But he's still my favorite comp rider to watch. Style and creativity for days. And he's got the power to back it up now.
